Warning: The following contains spoilers for season one of USA Network's "Mr. Robot."

USA Network's "Mr. Robot" is built around its mind-bending storylines and twists. As such, it's no surprise that critics swarmed series creator and showrunner Sam Esmail at the Television Critics Association with questions left unanswered by season one. Though Esmail wouldn't crack, obviously, he did provide a few brief tidbits about season two.

The first of which is that the sophomore campaign will follow Elliot Anderson (Rami Malek) as he struggles with the knowledge that he is actually - spoiler alert - Mr. Robot (Christian Slater).

"There will be a lot more backstory that will be shown, the timeline will get a little clearer - not 100 percent clear, because where's the fun in that? But a little clearer," Esmail told Entertainment Weekly. "...It really is about Elliot trying to reconcile what this means in seeing Mr. Robot. The series is filling in the blanks of the past and the present of the character...It's about a guy who becomes aware of this delusion he's been having."

Fans will be happy to know that they can expect some answers in season two. But can they also expect "Mr. Robot's" patented twists and turns. "Probably," answered Esmail, who will direct all 10 episodes of the second season. "If I were a betting man, I would say yes."

Slater revealed that he had an inkling for season one's big twist after reader the pilot script.

"I thought this is very interesting, and it's certainly a subject matter that I hadn't really seen tackled in this way before, and I thought the Mr. Robot character was very mysterious. I remember I said to my agent, 'You think that guy's really there?' and my agent's like, 'Oh come on, they'd never do that!' So then I had a meeting with Sam - the first meeting we ever had - and I asked him point blank. And then he told me pretty much the whole outline of the season and I was so thrilled and so excited and I think it put us on the same page."

But with the big reveal, will Slater's character become obsolete? Won't Elliot have to figure out a way to get rid of his mental manifestations?

"No, I actually think this is the fun part," Esmail said. "When I first wrote this as a feature [film, the Mr. Robot revelation] happened at the first act break. What the movie was about, was what if a guy discovers this thing about himself, what's the next thing he does? That, to me, is the interesting part."

"Mr. Robot" is expected to return sometime this summer.
